CS2 update — March 16, 2026
Cases in Germany and the Netherlands now use the X-Ray Scanner
X-Ray Scanner
Players in Germany and Netherlands will have an X-Ray Scanner tab in their Inventory. For those players, containers can only be opened via X-ray Scanner. The X-Ray Scanner will come preloaded with a one-time exclusive non-tradable "Genuine P250 | X-ray", which must be claimed before using the X-Ray Scanner to reveal items in other containers.
Keyless Containers, like Souvenir Packages, can be opened without the X-Ray Scanner.
In short: what changed
- Players in Germany and the Netherlands can only open containers via the X-Ray Scanner.
- Souvenir Packages open as usual.
